AITP Selects New Association Management Company

The New
Year will usher in new opportunities for AITP. January 1, 2014 will mark the
beginning of a partnership between AITP and Association Headquarters, Inc. (AH),
our new association management company.

AITP’s
leadership created a Search Committee who was dedicated to a very thorough and
careful process in selecting AITP’s new association management company.
Ultimately, AH was chosen because of their demonstrated success with other
technology client partners, and energy and creativity in responding to AITP’s
specific needs and objectives.

AH is
made up of over 190 professionals and is headquartered in Mount Laurel, NJ. AH
has over 35 years of experience in managing trade and professional
associations, medical societies and non-profits. They provide everything from
executive and meeting management to a full in-house creative agency for
marketing and PR needs, as well as outstanding accounting and financial reporting
services. The team at AH will be led by AITP’s new Executive Director, Melissa
Baldwin, CAE.

"We are
pleased to begin this partnership with AITP,” said AH's President and COO, Bob
Waller, CAE. "We look forward to bringing our expertise in association
management and creating opportunities for the association to achieve its
goals.”

Bill
Fly, AITP Association President, said "The AITP Board of Directors is looking
forward to working with AH as our new management partner. AH will be working
cooperatively with SmithBucklin over the next several months to transition
management services and will be well prepared to take over day-to-day
operations. We are confident that this new partnership will enable us to grow
and exceed the needs of our members, chapters and the IT industry.”
